6. USE OF THE COOKING HOB
6.1 Lighting of the cooking hob burners
Before lighting the hob burners check that the flame caps are in the
correct position and that their burner caps are in place, making sure that
the holes A in the flame caps correspond to the spark plugs and
thermocouples.
Grid B should be used with Chinese woks.
Each knob corresponds to the burner indicated. The
appliance is equipped with an electric lighting device.
To light the burners, press and turn the knob
anticlockwise to the large flame symbol
. Keep the
knob pressed for about 2 seconds to let the
thermocouple heat up.
If the burner turns off when the knob is released, it means that the
thermocouple isn’t hot enough. Repeat ignition and keep the knob
pressed longer.
Once the burner has been ignited, the flame can be regulated as
required.
Always check that the control knobs are in the position (off) when you
finish using the hob.
If the burners turn off accidentally, a safety device will trip after about 20
seconds to cut off gas flow (even with the gas tap open).
20
Instructions for the user
6.2 Practical advice for using the cooking hob burners
For better use of the burners and lower gas consumption, use covered
containers that are proportional in size to the burner to prevent the flame
from licking the sides (see paragraph “6.3 Diameter of containers").
When water reaches the boiling point, lower the flame so that it doesn’t
overflow. To avoid burns or damage to the hob, all recipients or griddle
plates must be placed within the perimeter of the cooking hob. All
containers have to have a flat and smooth bottom. When using fats or
oils, be extremely careful that they don’t overheat and catch fire.
If the flame accidentally goes out, turn off the control knob and wait at
least 1 minute before trying to re-light the burner.

7.1 Warnings and general advice
Before using the oven for the first time, pre-heat it to maximum
temperature (250°C) long enough to burn any manufacturing oily
residues which could give the food a bad taste.
To prevent any steam in the oven creating
problems, open the door in two stages: half open
(5 cm approx.) for 4-5 seconds and then fully
open. To access food, always leave the door
open as short a time as possible to prevent the
temperature in the oven from falling and ruining
the food.
7.2 Oven Light
It comes on when the function switch knob is turned to any position.
7.3 Storage drawer
The storage drawer is at the bottom of the
cooker, underneath the oven. For access,
pull the bottom of the door.
Never store inflammable materials such as
rags, paper or the like. The compartment is
intended only for holding the metal
accessories of the range.
Never open the storage compartment when the oven is on and still hot.
The temperature inside may be very high.
